[SOLVED]Building UEFI (EDK II) for x64 platform

HI,
I am trying to build the EDK II source for an x86 platform. I am carrying out the following steps from the release notes for Unix Systems. My OS is Linux 2.6.32
===============================================================================
HOW TO BUILD (UNIX-LIKE SYSTEM)
================================================================================
Unix-Like System Configuration:
DistributorID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: Ubuntu 9.10
Codename: Karmic
1. Extract Common Source Code
1) Create a working space directory in the build machine, for example, ~/src/MyWorkspace
2) Extract files in [UDK2010.UP4] to the working space directory.
In this case, it is ~/src/MyWorkspace. There are two BaseTools package one
is for Windows system and another is for UNIX-Like system. Please make
sure BaseTools(Unix).tar is used here.
3) Extract files in [P.UDK2010.UP4.Network] and copy the NetworkPkg Directory to the working
space directory. In this case, it is ~/src/MyWorkspace.
4) Extract files in [P.UDK2010.UP4.SourceDebugging] and copy the SourceDebuggingPkg Directory
to the working space directory. In this case, it is ~/src/MyWorkspace.
3. Generate OpenSSL* Crypto Library
1) Open file "~/src/MyWorkspace/CryptoPkg/Library/OpensslLib/Patch-HOWTO.txt"
and follow the instruction to install OpenSSL* for UEFI building.
4. Setup Build Environment
1) Follow instructions for setting up the build environment on tianocore.org.
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/t … ke_systems
a) Please be noticed that here the root is "~/src/MyWorkspace" instead
of "~/src/edk2"
b) Follow the instructions for building GCC* for X64 and IA32 as well as
building the Intel ASL compiler. Some of these steps are listed under
the <Enabling Other Tools> section.
c) At last check again and make sure "BaseTools", "GCC* for IA32", "GCC*
for X64" and IASL compiler are successfully built out. Check if these
tools path defined in "Conf/tools_def.txt" are accordant with actual
tools path especially for UNIXGCC_IA32_PETOOLS_PREFIX,
UNIXGCC_X64_PETOOLS_PREFIX and UNIX_IASL_BIN.
5. Build Steps
1) Open a terminal and type "cd ~/src/MyWorkspace" to enter the workspace
directory.
2) Initialize the build environment by typing ". edksetup.sh BaseTools".
3) Now type "build -t UNIXGCC -a IA32 -p Nt32Pkg/Nt32Pkg.dsc"
to build the platform.
I am successful in executing the steps untill I run the last command which is 'build'. This instruction is from the link
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/t … ke_systems (as pointed up above in step 4.1)
I get errors while running the command build.
Could someone help?
Regards!

[solved] Building a kernel meant for one computer on another computer?

Hi!
Is it possible to use my laptop to build a kernel meant for a much slower desktop computer?
They're both running up-to-date Arch i686.

[solved] building the kernel headers for custom kernels

well, ive been building several different kernels for my laptop, so that i can test stuff. but ive got a problem with the kernel headers.
ive mirrored the arch kernel's PKGBUILD and modified some naming to get a custom kernel. but when i try to build a custmo module, it complains the headers are broken. (example, vbox_build_module).
im pasting the pkgbuild here for future reference...if someone sees something thats plain wrong, please say so.
thanks

for anything that might be missing. The error message when compiling would give you more of a clue. Off-hand, you may need to add 'generated', as I recall I needed that when the kernel moved to 2.6.33.

Is there a Oracle 9.2 version for X64 bit platform

Hello!!
I have X64 bit machine with Windows 2003 server enterprise x64 edition installed.
Is there a Oracle 9.2 version which I can install on this machine?
In the site I found the Oracle 9.2 version for IA64.
Could anyone give me any pointers as to where I can find Oracle 9.2 for x64 platform.
thanks and regards,
Sandeep

Hi,
currently you only can install 9.2 32bit (Patch Set 9.2.0.3.0 or higher is required) on this platform. Pure 64bit software is only available for Itanium and EMD64/AMD64 architectures. I don't know if there are any plans to change that.

Cleaning tool for Asha Platform ?

Hi, I think NOKIA should build a cleaning tool for Asha Platform like some softwares on Android or Windows, such as : Clean master or Ccleaner. Sometimes, you use the asha device, system creates tempt files or dump files and you must clean all to increase internal memory capacity. With the cleaning tool you can usually refresh your device and easily manage your softwares or games. Is this a good idea?

brian_le,
That feature is sure to be desired of but due to restrictions of the Asha / S40 platform this might not be possible. Most of the temporary or cache files are needed in order to speed up some processes that is accessed frequently.
How to free up memory on your Asha device: http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA141378

We need to install BW 3.5 IDES version for X64 windows-MSSQL
platform , but we are unable to find CD/DVD sets available on
Service.sap.com. Please let us know how to download the same and exact
path for downloading at earliest.
Thanks and Regards,

Thanks Markus but i have already raised message to SAP week back , but since it is IDES issue SAP will hardly come back on this .
I have my fingers crossed meanwhile i just need a note saying this is not possible for X64 platform for keeping my customer on hold.
If you could find some.

Hi MonsterMMORPG,
I made a mistake in my previous reply. What I suggested is that you created a new and simple WPF app, set the platform to
x64 rather than x86, and then build the app to check the result.
If a new WPF app also has this issue, then I doubt whether this issue is related to your VS.

How about gccfss for Solaris x86/x64 platforms?

Subject says it all... it could make compiling a lot of code out there a whole lot easier!
Bob

I also desire gccfss for Solaris x86/x64 platforms .
In the interim I have downloaded the source and am attempting to create such a beast.
It is slow progress to fix the unexpected script breakage, but it seems to be going OK:
Problems:
1.): Issues like "-mtune=v9" and an "embeded spec" in gcc and cpp (from files
gccfss_src/build/gcc/gccspec.o and gccfss_src/build/gcc/cppspec.o).
2.): Use of OPTTABLE_H = $(srcdir)/config/target-option-table.h with SPARC specific
options throughout
EG:
#ifdef CROSS_COMPILE
#define NATIVE \
{ "-native", "-xtarget=generic" }, \
{ "-xarch=native64", "-Zarch=v9 -Zarchm64=v9 -Zm=64" },\
{ "-xarch=native", "-Zarch=v8plus -Zarchm32=v8plus -Zarchm64=v9 -Zm=32" },\
{ "-xtarget=native64", "-Zarch=generic -Zarchm32=generic -Zarchm64=v9 -xchip=generic -xcache=generic -Zm=64"}, \
{ "-xtarget=native", "-Zarch=generic -Zarchm32=generic -Zarchm64=v9 -xchip=generic -xcache=generic -Zm=32"}
#else
#define NATIVE \
{ "-native", "-xtarget=native" }, \
{ "-xarch=native64", "-xarch=native64 -Zm=64"}, \
{ "-xarch=native", "-xarch=native -Zm=32"}, \
{ "-xtarget=native64", "-xtarget=native64 -Zm=64"}, \
{ "-xtarget=native", "-xtarget=native -Zm=32"}
#endif
Thus, one would need to change:
{ "-xarch=native64", "-Zarch=v9 -Zarchm64=v9 -Zm=64" },\
to something like:
{ "-xarch=native64", "-xarch=386 -m64" },\
3.): Copy the "sparc_output_scratch_registers()" function from file
"gccfss_src/src/gcc/config/sparc/sparc.c" to "gccfss_src/src/gcc/tree-ir.c".
4.): Use the undocumented command line option "-frtl-backend" when this error
occurs during the build (a simple Makefile change):
`-mcpu=' is deprecated. Use `-mtune=' or '-march=' instead.
xgcc: SUNW0scgfss 4.2.0 has not been installed. Either install it or use -frtl-backend.
5.): More ...
All these issues occur because the scripts expect "--build=sparc-pc-solaris2.11" but
I configured using "--build=i386-pc-solaris2.11" . It seems like it is going to work
but I am yet to finish stage1 of the build (I do have a working "xgcc").

[SOLVED] Build nvidia-173xx (173.14.31-7) for linux-ck-kx (3.4.1-2)

I need a bit of help here. For a few months I have been using the proprietary nvidia-173xx driver for my old NV34 / GeForce FX 5200 (I have a downgraded xorg-1.10 and a compatible nvidia-173xx-utils (173.14.31-1)).
I have four kernels, and I used to be able to build the nvidia-173xx module without problems for all four kernels.
However, after the recent upgrade from linux-ck-kx-3.3 to linux-ck-kx-3.4 I can no longer build the nvidia-173xx for this kernel (but it still builds fine for the three other kernels on my system).
Here is the error I receive:
$ makepkg -sfci

Aborting...
I don’t know what to make of this error ; I’ve looked in `/lib/modules/<kernel-versions…>…' but I don’t see any file named `Rules.make' in there…
Here are the files I use for building the modules (they are all slightly customized PKGBUILDs based on AUR/nvidia-173xx) :
core/linux               --> PKGBUILD  --> nvidia.install
core/linux-lts           --> PKGBUILD  --> nvidia.install
AUR/linux-lts-ck       --> PKGBUILD  --> nvidia.install
repo-ck/linux-ck-kx  --> PKGBUILD  --> nvidia.install
In this list, #1-3 still build without a hitch, only #4 throws the error I pasted above. Ideas? Thanks in advance!

Well nevermind, I don’t know what I was doing wrong before, but with yesterday’s update of nvidia-173xx (patch not longer required) and nvidia-173xx-utils in the AUR, I was able to upgrade to X.org-1.12, and I re-built the nvidia module for all my kernels. I now have a fully current arch system, yay !
In case this is useful to anyone, here are the slightly modified PKGBUILD and nvidia.install that I used (based on natrio’s package in the AUR)

PKCS#11 support for x64 Windows

Hi All,
I'm trying to discover the truth (aren't we all?) Can anyone confirm what the current (and future) support for PKCS#11 for x64 Windows system is? Looking around, it appears I might be out of luck, but I'm hoping more of you might have discovered stuff I haven't?
I understand that there ARE definately providers for other platforms (which kinda defeats the platform independancy of Java doesn't it?) but I
'm not running other platforms (well apart from x86 Windows which is fine).
Thanks in advance,
Tim.

I have the same problem. The problem with the AMD 64 bit Windows downloads (both JRE and JDK) is that the file j2pkcs11.dll is missing from the build. It is present in other releases but not this one. Does anyone know where this file can be obtained?

Unresolved external symbol NumericArrayResize when compiling a DLL at x64 platform using vs2005

I have a dll which is called by Labview through "Call Library Function Node". I want to port this dll to x64 platform from 32bit code which runs well at x86 computer. So, I download the Labview 8.5 evaluation version, replace the orginal referenced header file and library file in 32 bit code, such as extcode.h, fundtypes.h, labview.lib etc. Then I compile the code with Visual Studio 2005, error occurs when link "error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol NumericArrayResize". I don't know why because I really link library labview.lib. Can anyone help me?

Workgroup Installing Client Fails (Build and Capture) - Windows 7 x64

Hi, I'm trying to configure a Build and Capture TS for Windows 7 x64 but the client always fails to find my site during installation, which means I can't install updates and applications. I'm running SCCM 2012 SP1 and the ConfigMgr2012-SP1-KB2801987-X64-ENU
hotfix has already been installed.
I'm using the SMSMP=XX.XX (and SMSSITECODE=XXX) options but the log always says "No MPs were specified from commandline..."
I've done a huge amount of searching and it seems like it should be possible to end up with a client installed on a workgroup computer with the correct side code (and displaying "Currently Internet"), which should allow updates to be installed
during the TS, but I can't get it to work! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply. You're right, I'm setting the SMSMP and SMSSITECODE in the command line of the package itself, not the TS properties box. I have tried both ways, in fact every combination I could think of and nothing seems to produce an installed client
which knows its site (and both ways produce almost identical logs, which makes me think the properties are being ignored from either location).
The log doesn't actually contain any error messages which seem relevant at all, but here's some chunks with all of the errors (the log was too big to post in its entirety) :

PDF iFilter 11.0.01 for x64 is not usable

I use Traditional Chinese Windows 7 x64 Home Premium SP1 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02.
I don't use the "Windows Search" service and have disabled it.
Today I un-installed the old Adobe PDF iFilter 9 for x64 (from Programs and Features), restarted my PC and installed the latest PDF iFilter 11.0.01 for x64. Also, after installation, I appended to the PATH environment variable, correctly, the full path of the bin sub-folder under this new iFilter's default installation folder, i.e., C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe PDF iFilter 11 for 64-bit platforms\bin .
Now, in Windows Explorer, when I do a search from the serach box (at the upper righthand corner), with the syntax content:<search keyword>, no result is returned from any PDF file when I do know the <search keyword> is contained in some PDF files in the folder.
Another bad thing... I have a file searching utility called "FileSeek 3.0", which was released in April this year. After the installation of iFilter 11.0.01, now it hangs when searching PDF files.
There was no problem before today, when iFilter 9 was used.
So, anything wrong with the 11.0.01 iFilter? Or I missed something?

I have the same problem for a couple of months, and I had to use a plug-in in Firefox to print a web page. I really need the web page address in the footer for reference purposes which Chrome print (Ctrl+P) does not produce.
The error message is: A supported version of Acrobat could not be found. Please install or update Acrobat to 11.0.9 or higher."
After updating to Acrobat 11.0.10 and repairing the installation the problem did not go away.
Deleting and re-installing the extension did not help either.

An EFFECTIVE development directory structure for J2EE platform?

Hi, here we r talking about deployment environment more than development
environment. Have u ever think about designing an EFFECTIVE development
directory structure for J2EE platform( e.g. weblogic )? u r not using the
deployment directories for coding, r u? :)
I used to construct a dir structure for dev and want to improve it.
d:/wholesystem/*.prj // Project files
...../module1/src/com/.... // Module source files
...../module1/doc/... // Module doc files
...../module1/classes/... // Module class files
...../module2/...
...../web/*.jsp // web page files
...../web/images/... // web page images
...../web/WEB-INF/... //...
Do u have any good ideas? Thanks!

Create a web-inf folder at the same level of src and
jsp folder inside src
i mean
/build.xml
/src/
/src/java/<package>/...../*.java
/src/demo/<package/...../*.java
/src/test/<package>/....../*.java
/src/jsp
/web-infSo, would you put in /src/jsp only the *.jsp?
And what in /WEB-INF ? What woud you put there? Would you do something like:
/WEB-INF/web.xml
/WEB-INF/src/<package>/..../<my_servlets_and_j2ee_stuff>.java
/WEB-INF/classes/<package>/..../<my_servlets_and_j2ee_stuff>.java
In this manner sources and classes are in the same tree, it does not seem very clean to me, expecially if you consider that probably I must have a "test" directory to unit test some j2ee stuff (as for the j2se stuff in "src"): how would you do that?
Is this directory structure anyway what you meant or not?

Oracle forms 10g 32bit with Oracle 10g database on windows itanium for x64

Hi.....
Currently we are planning to have this configuration
1. Oracle10g RAC on HP rx6600 with windows itanium for x64 architecture
2. Oracle Application Server (32-bit) on windows 2003 (forms & reports services)
3. Application migrated from 6i to 10g
I have to things to ask about?
1.Will it be ok to connect from an application compiled with _(32-bit)_ 10g forms to a x64_ platform without problems ?
2. Can we connect forms and reports of developer 6i +(32-bit)+ to 10g RAC on x64_ platform if the character set is not UTF8 ?

1.Will it be ok to connect from an application compiled with (32-bit) 10g forms to a x64 platform without problems ?I did this also. A 32bit Oracle Form(10gR2) on Linux and a 64 bit (10gR2) database. And this works without a problem. Since you didn't mentioned your versions I would suggest you look for your combination if it is certified combination.
2. Can we connect forms and reports of developer 6i (32-bit) to 10g RAC on x64 platform if the character set is not UTF8 ?I don't know if the combination is certified. But regarding your character set, you have a character set setting (NLS_LANG, DEVELOPER_LANG, etc.. ) for your developer 6i, your database has it's own character set. Depending on those setting a conversion of the character set will take place between your developer 6i and the database, when you get and put data to the database. But like I said I don't know if developer 6i and 10g is still a supported combination.
